We are pleased to announce that 1st Stage of Tysons has invited The Actual Dance as one of their summer hosted productions.1st Stage was founded in 2008 and has since become one of the premier locat theater destinations in the Washington Theater community. The theater's name is a bit of a double entendre in that their goal is to serve as part of the first stage of young emerging and non-traditional artists.The Actual Dance in many ways fits that description, with the exception that I see myself as being in my 4th Stage of life. That is I'm not particularly young. And yet I am very much an emerging artist.There will be five performances each followed by a discussion.Tickets to these shows can be purchesd at the 1st Stage web site.These performances will also feature our new direction provided by my New York based director Kate Holland. In addition, we will feature live music with Eli Zoller our music director and guitar player coming down from New York to play, and local cellis Stephanie Herman joining him.
